Description
The Reserve 63 DT 180 Carbon Rear Wheel is the ultimate expression of speed and precision—an aerodynamic powerhouse that merges Reserve’s wind-tuned carbon engineering with the absolute efficiency of DT Swiss’s flagship 180 hub. Designed for riders who refuse compromise, it delivers instantaneous acceleration, effortless cruising velocity, and the kind of calm stability that makes fast riding feel easy. From long solo efforts to time trials and high-speed racing, this wheel turns watts into unwavering momentum.
The 63 mm rim depth defines Reserve’s real-world aero philosophy. Developed through advanced CFD analysis and proven in variable-wind testing, its deep section minimizes drag while maintaining balance in turbulent airflow. The proprietary carbon lay-up keeps weight low and torsional stiffness high, ensuring crisp power transfer without harshness. The 21 mm internal width is optimized for modern 25–30 mm tires, giving a broad, stable interface that enhances traction, lowers rolling resistance, and smooths out rough pavement. Tubeless-ready and hookless by design, it allows easy setup and lower pressures for improved grip, compliance, and speed over long distances.
At its core, the DT Swiss 180 hub represents mechanical perfection. The carbon-reinforced shell houses the Ratchet EXP 36T drive mechanism, providing rapid engagement and ultra-reliable power transfer. SiNC ceramic bearings reduce friction to near zero, spinning freely mile after mile. Every component is engineered to minimize weight, maximize stiffness, and require minimal maintenance. Paired with the SRAM XDR freehub, the system integrates seamlessly with modern 12-speed drivetrains for crisp shifts and absolute drivetrain efficiency. Every pedal stroke feels smooth, silent, and direct.
Each wheel is hand-built with 24 Sapim CX-Ray bladed spokes in a two-cross pattern for aerodynamic strength and consistent load distribution. The asymmetric spoke bed evens tension between drive and non-drive sides, maintaining trueness under torque and preserving long-term reliability. Reserve’s exacting build standards guarantee perfect alignment straight from the stand. The result is a wheel that feels composed at speed—responsive under load, stable in crosswinds, and unflinching on descents.
For riders who measure performance in precision and feel, the Reserve 63 DT 180 Carbon Rear Wheel (SRAM XDR) stands at the pinnacle of modern design. It’s light, deep, and relentlessly efficient—a wheel that redefines what aerodynamic speed can feel like when every component works in complete harmony. Power flows smoother, air moves cleaner, and every ride becomes a study in controlled velocity.
